[ISEA2012] Artists Talk: Marcela Armas, Arcangel Constantini, Juan Jose Diaz Infante, Gilberto Esparza & Ivan Puig – MEXICAN SPACE COLLECTIVE

Artists Statement

Juan José Díaz Infante and the Mexican Space Collective are building a satellite called Ulises I. Inspired by and in response to Mexico’s drug war, Infante wanted to illustrate the idea that the future varies for different generations. The project involves launching the satellite into space, after which it will play an algorithmic opera, making the satellite a musical instrument. An art installation about this project is displayed in the ISEA2012 exhibition at The Anderson-Abruzzo Albuquerque International Balloon Museum.
